To treat women globally is the principle that inspires the activity of our psychologists, physicians psychotherapists and trained volunteers (women who have lived through and overcome the experience of cancer and have been suitably trained to assist the specialists in their work). It's a principle shared and implemented by all those who every day put their professional skills and humanity at the service of Attivecomeprima.
The careful work that our team performs to assist women stimulates and reinforces their psychological, physical and emotional conditions, allowing them to participate actively in their own treatment and to contribute to their own well-being.

Attivecomeprima has developed a number of original methods and tools based on listening to the experience of thousands of women. The activities can cover a broad range of needs. Each one has a specific aim, its own methodology and implementation technique.
The organisation carries out continuous monitoring and assessment of effectiveness of the methods and their results.
